Carbon Barrels

Carbon - innovative high-tech material for Rifle Barrels.

We manufacture moulds for barrels. Using these, we manufacture innovative products with improved characteristics using Carbon Fibre reinforced materials.

The figure illustrates the LBW Carbon with Carbon Fibre-reinforced barrel and a prototype Carbon Stock.

The Carbon barrel is available in a Hunting contour and also in a Varmint contour.

Benefits:

• Lighter than Steel Barrels, for example a 60cm Steel Barrel in Hunting contour weighs about 1,350g. A Carbon Barrel with the same contour without Muzzle Brake weighs around 930 gm - almost half a kilo less.
• Greater stability since Carbon is more flexible than steel.
• More recoil reduction owing to the characteristic damping of Carbon and on account of the Muzzle Brake.
• Matt-finish, black and acommodating surface.
• No rust formation and barely any corrosion.
• Durable and robust surface.
• Compared to stainless steel there is no hardening of the edges or peeling by heat treatment, such as nitriding.
• The barrel length is: 60 cm
• Calibre variation: basically, that of the respective model.
• Maximum possible Calibre at present: 375 H&H Mag. (Varmint contour only)

Available at present for the following models (please ask for Calibres in stock):

• 2155 (M98)
• LBW

We also offer the technologies deployed here to our customers from other industries.
